7 RESPONSIBILITY, ORGANISATION AND TRAINING 2.10 Company health service The company health service assists the employer and employees with monitoring the working environment and suggests improvements. We consult our company health service for advice on ergonomics, the physical working environment, and sick leave. The company health services is also utilised in the event of serious incidents, acute life crises, or changes in work situations AKAN (The Workplace Advisory Centre for issues related to alcohol, drugs and addictive gambling in the workplace) Manpower has zero tolerance with respect to the use of intoxicants. You must not be under the infl uence of alcohol or other intoxicants or anaesthetic substances during work hours, or be absent due to the use of intoxicants. Breaches of this rule will have consequences for your employment relationship. Manpower has an agreement with AKAN (The Workplace Advisory Centre for issues related to alcohol, drugs and addictive gambling in the workplace). Our AKAN work is aimed at preventing substance abuse problems among employees, preventing accidents, ensuring quality and a good working environment, and to help employees with substance abuse problems at the earliest opportunity. On certain assignments, the client may demand that you consent to alcohol and/or drug testing when this is required by the law or regulations, concerns a position which involves particularly high risk, or when the client deems it necessary to protect life or health. Any requirement for alcohol and/or drug testing is normally clarifi ed prior to signing assignment contracts, but it may also become a requirement in existing assignments. Questions concerning the client s access to this may be raised with your Manpower consultant. If you require advice and guidance, you may contact your consultant, who in turn will contact our AKAN supervisor. Such matters are confi dential, and enquiries are not recorded Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority The job of the Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority is to advise companies on working environment issues, but it also has the authority to issue instructions in the event of a failure to comply with laws and regulations. Manpower works with the Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority to ensure good working conditions for all our employees. 7
8 PREVENTION AND FOLLOW-UP OF SICK LEAVE 3. PREVENTION AND FOLLOW-UP OF SICK-LEAVE 3.1 Introduction Manpower has signed an Inclusive Working Life (IA) agreement and we have good routines for following up people on sick leave. We believe good preventive HSE work helps to ensure work is healthy. 3.2 Inclusive Working Life (IA agreement) Our IA action plan states that your Manpower consultant must especially focus on IA work when following up his or her employees. Manpower has three goals for IA Reduce the sick leave rate for contracted employees during the sick pay period by 0.1 percentage points. Recruit and retain employees with permanent or temporarily reduced capacity for work. Motivate and help older employees to remain in work for longer. 3.3 Prevention of sick leave As an IA company, Manpower focuses on preventing sick leave and adapting work to match your capacity for work. All consultants responsible for assignments have received training in preventing sick leave. This included information about workplace adaptation, facilitation subsidies, and travel subsidies. 3.4 Follow-up when you are on sick leave If you are sick and you cannot work, you have a duty to help fi nd solutions that prevent unnecessarily prolonged sick leave. In the case of sick leave that it is assumed will last for a prolonged period, we will call you in for follow-up meetings and prepare follow-up plans together. You have a responsibility to help with the design and execution of follow-up plans. You are only obliged to provide information on your capacity for work. Manpower uses the following follow-up activities: Within 4 weeks: In the meeting we will assess the current work situation, the possibility of performing other tasks, adaptation and aids. Within 7 weeks: Here we will look at the previous follow-up plan and look at measures that were implemented or agreed, assess which measures have been effective and consider new measures. Within 6 months: NAV will call you, your doctor and your Manpower consultant in for a meeting. We must jointly update the follow-up plan prior to this meeting Work related absences If your absence is due to conditions at the workplace, we wish to be informed of this. Your role in Manpower s Inclusive Workplace work is to take responsibility and notify us if conditions in the assignment or your health indicate that we should do something to prevent future sick leave.
9 PREVENTION AND FOLLOW-UP OF WORK RELATED INJURIES 9 4. PREVENTION AND FOLLOW-UP OF WORK RELATED INJURIES (OCCUPATIONAL INJURIES AND OCCUPATIONAL ILLNESSES) 4.1 Introduction As a Manpower employee you are covered by occupational injury insurance. This cover is additional to the occupational injury benefi ts from NAV (Norwegian Labour and Welfare Administration). If you suffer an occupational injury or illness, the Manpower consultant responsible for your assignment will help you report the injury/illness. 4.2 Definition of occupational injury An occupational injury is an injury that is due to a sudden or unexpected external event (accident) that occurs during working hours, in the workplace and during the performance of the work. The term occupational injury is the same in the Occupational Injury Insurance Act and the National Insurance Scheme. 4.3 Definition of serious occupational injury (advisory) 1. Head injuries/concussions involving a loss of consciousness and/or other serious consequences. 2. Skeletal injuries (except simple fractures or broken fi ngers or toes). 3. Internal injuries (injuries to internal organs such as the lungs, kidneys, spleen, etc.). 4. Loss of a body part (amputation of a body part or parts thereof). 5. Poisoning (with the risk of permanent injury), e.g. hydrogen sulphide poisoning. 6. Loss of consciousness due to the working environment factors, e.g. lack of oxygen. 7. Burn, frost or corrosion injuries (all full skin injuries (3rd degree) and/or partial skin injuries (2nd degree) to the face, hands, feet or the anogenital region, as well as all partial skin injuries that cover more than 5% of the body s surface. 8. General hypothermia. 9. Injuries that require hospital treatment, except for simpler outpatient treatment. Source: Arbeidstilsynet.no 4.4 Definition of occupational illness An illness can be accepted as an occupational illness if it is a consequence of a harmful impact from the working environment and is one of the illnesses listed in the regulations on occupational illnesses and infectious diseases equated with occupational illnesses. Strain injuries are not accepted as occupational illnesses. Examples of occupational illnesses include: Poisoning, chemical impacts Allergies, skin/lungs Radiation injuries Impaired hearing Some lung diseases caused by dust Vibration injuries Decompression sickness Infections
10 PREVENTION AND FOLLOW-UP OF WORK RELATED INJURIES 4.5 Procedure for serious occupational injury or death Find out what has happened and the scope of the incident Contact the following: - Ambulance Tel Police Tel Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority Tel Immediate superior at client - Manpower consultant responsible for the assignment We have access to crisis management via the company health service contact the consultant responsible for your assignment 4.6 Reporting occupational injuries and illnesses A specifi c occupational injury form must always be fi lled out in the event of an occupational injury or occupational illness. This ensures that Manpower (employer) registers your occupational injury/illness and that the expenses you are entitled to have NAV, HELFO and/ or the insurance company cover are paid. It is important that both the consultant responsible for your assignment and you sign the form so that we are sure both parties agree on the course of the events that resulted in the incident. The deadline for reporting occupational injuries/illnesses is 1 year for NAV and 3 years for the insurance company. The deadlines apply from the end of the calendar year in which you acquired, or should have acquired, the necessary information about the situation on which your claim is based. Insurance payments are contingent on the injury being reported and accepted as an occupational injury/illness. You must: Always submit a report to the consultant responsible for your assignment if you are injured at work or experience a near accident. Fill in NAV s injury form with the consultant responsible for your assignment. Inform Manpower s HR department if there is a risk of the injury resulting in incapacity to work, disability or long-term sick leave in excess of one year, so that Manpower can report the injury to the insurance company. The consultant responsible for your assignment must: Immediately notify the Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority and police in the event of a serious injury or death. Fill in NAV s injury form with you and send the form to HR, which will register the case and forward it to NAV. Send the injury report to the insurance company in cases where serious injuries are involved, injuries that may result in incapacity to work or disability, or injuries that will result in major treatment costs in the national health service. Your doctor must: Send a written report to the Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority if it is suspected that your affl iction is related to your work situation. 10
11 PREVENTION AND FOLLOW-UP OF WORK RELATED INJURIES Manpower s internal HR department must: Ensure that serious injuries are reported to the Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority. This is usually done by the client, but Manpower has a responsibility to do so if the client does not. Assist the consultant responsible for your assignment and you with completing the occupational injury form if necessary. Send the occupational injury form to NAV. Send you a letter stating that the injury has been registered and how expenses are reimbursed. Report the injury to the insurance company if you have reported that there is a risk of medical incapacity to work, you are sick beyond the maximum date for sickness benefi t (approx. 1 year) and/or you report that you have incurred expenses in the national health service that are not covered by NAV. Register the occupational injury/illness in ManpowerGroup s occupational injury register. 4.7 Expenses in connection with an occupational injury and/or occupational illness You must pay the expenses in connection with medical treatment and similar expenses. You must also apply for reimbursement from HELFO after a decision to accept the occupational injury/illness has been made, and no later than 6 months after the expense was incurred. Expenses associated with alternative forms of treatment, e.g. acupuncture and private clinics, etc, are normally not covered. Some physiotherapist or chiropractor expenses may be reimbursed if you are referred by a doctor. In such cases, you must contact the consultant responsible for your assignment so we can check whether or not it is possible to cover the difference through our insurance company. 11
12 SERIOUS INCIDENTS 5. SERIOUS INCIDENTS 5.1 Introduction A serious incident could involve unpremeditated (HSE) or premeditated (criminal) circumstances, for example: occupational accident sudden death fi re serious breach of ManpowerGroup s code of conduct (disloyal employees) 5.2 Procedure for serious occupational injuries, deaths or other serious incidents Find out what has happened and the scope of the incident.

The plan forms part of ManpowerGroup s policy and requirements for satisfactory operations. 5.4 Crisis management - advice and guidance Employees may sometimes experience serious stress, both at work and in their private lives. In order to ensure good personnel care, we have guidelines for how we can take care of each other in the event of such incidents. No two incidents are alike and no two people will have the same need for support.

14 INTERNAL CONTROL 7. INTERNAL CONTROL 7.1 Introduction Internal control is quality assurance. The purpose of an internal control system is to ensure that problems are discovered and dealt with in time. Manpower complies with the requirements that are stipulated for HSE in the Regulations relating to Systematic Health, Environmental and Safety Activities in Enterprises (Internal Control Regulations). 7.2 Risk assessments Risk is defi ned as the possibility of something adverse occurring and the consequences this may have. This is not just about major accidents, but also, for instance, problems working together, strain injuries, illness, risk of pollution, etc. Hazards and problems in the workplace must be surveyed and, on the basis of this, risks assessed, the appropriate plans drawn up, and measures implemented to reduce risks. Manpower surveys HSE at all of its clients prior to assignments. 7.3 Your responsibilities You must adjust to and comply with the client s safety instructions, company rules and other regulations that apply at the client s and/or for the assignment. This means that you must: Actively contribute to and support the HSE goals, action plans and measures. Comply with and abide by the routines, procedures and instructions that apply for the relevant duties. Be aware of and report any situations to the client that are of signifi cance with respect to HSE. 7.4 Client s responsibilities As a contracted employee from Manpower you should be included in the client s risk assessment and internal control system. The client is responsible for coordination and for ensuring a fully satisfactory working environment in line with section 2-2 (1) of the Working Environment Act. 7.5 Manpower s responsibilities If the client cannot confi rm that you are covered by their internal control system, you will be covered by Manpower s HSE and internal control system. Manpower will conduct a specifi c risk assessment of the workplace to which you are contracted out. 7.6 Whistleblowing Whistleblowing is positive for both the company and for society because it enables improper situations to be rectifi ed. Situations that should be reported include breaches of the law, internal rules or ethical standards. You also have a duty to report improper situations. 14 Whistleblowing is positive Whistleblowing is positive both for the business and for society because misconduct can be corrected. Conditions such as violating laws, internal regulations or ethical standards shall be notifi ed. Employees who are willing to whistle blow are an essential resource for ManpowerGroup. It is also the individual s duty to notify us of unacceptable circumstances.
15 How to notify? Notifi cation may be made orally or in writing, for example, by telephone, , letter or in person. INTERNAL CONTROL Who are you to notify? As a starting point the responsible consultant should be notifi ed. Alternatively, our safety representatives may be notifi ed. If you do not get any response or feedback, you are encouraged to inform our CEO. Follow-up after whistleblowing ManpowerGroup will investigate and handle the criticism. If it turns out that the criticism is unfounded or based on a misunderstanding, the whistleblower shall get a proper explanation. External whistleblowing ManpowerGroup has made good routines for notifying internally. Meanwhile, the individual always has the right to go to public authorities with relevant issues. Employees may notify the Labour Inspection Authority of circumstances one thinks is contrary to the law. The Labour Inspection Authority is obliged to keep the whistleblower s name anonymous. Anonymity and confi dentiality Notifi cation can be made anonymously, but normally transparency will ensure a better procedure and a better outcome for all parties involved. The whistleblower s identity shall not be revealed without consent. Prohibition to punish the whistleblower It is forbidden to punish or sanction against whistleblowers. Whistleblowers who are experiencing such, must inform their responsible consultant who should immediately consider the matter. The whistleblower can also contact ManpowerGroup s safety representatives. 15
